Gary the Australian goat has charges dropped against him

Gary, a goat from Australia, has been cleared of destroying a flowerbed in Sydney's city centre after his case was appealed.
Police arrested Gary the goat for eating flowers outside the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney on 22 August.
His owner Jim Dezarnaul, a comedian known as Jimbo Bazoobi, was fined AUS $440 but the case was later dismissed by a local court.
Magistrate Carolyn Barkell said while the accused goat had been eating flowers when police arrived, there was no evidence Bazoobi brought Gary there with the intention of vandalising vegetation.
Paul McGirr, the lawyer for the goat, told the court that police had issued the wrong infringement notice, because it related to a person and not a goat.
He also said it could not be proved that Dezarnaul put Gary up to the act.
